My minimalistic setup in custom ROM (/e/OS)

Second page in Personal profile:

Work profile (for "dirty" apps)

Personal profile: Mostly FOSS apps.

Work profile: Sandboxed apps that depend on microG / Google and track a lot.

As a new user of a custom ROM, I'm still customizing my user interface and settings. I'm also trying to remove bloatware apps that I don't need.

Oh, interesting. Any trade-offs compared to the stock system?

    Thanks. Honestly, I would need to think about what features I miss from stock Android. πŸ˜… l have made a decision to switch to websites for some services, which has made the switch easier. 😊

    A few things: I wish it was easier to remove the pre-installed apps. After a fresh installation, I couldn't even remove the apps from the Home screen. However, this led to finding alternative solutions like another launcher to get a customized look. In general, the Bliss launcher was a bit of a downer.

    Android is still Google.

    Tbh, sandboxing doesnt matter much if you leave the work profile on 24/7
